Seven Days of Scarfie Free Pattern #2

Welcome to Day Number Two of Seven Days of Scarfie! Who has tried crocheted mittens before? Well if you haven’t, have I got the mitten patterns for you! These Cookies and Cream Mittens are the 11th free crochet mitten pattern I’ve published and the second free pattern in our Seven Days of Scarfie 2018 Pattern Collection. They are designed to match the Cookies and Cream Cowl and Slouch Hat that I have already published. Like with the Snowball Infinity Scarf pattern from yesterday - if you love this stitch pattern you can make a WHOLE SET right away ;) DIY Christmas gifts are fun to give, but sometimes you need a little help with inspiration. Seven Days of Scarfie will be that quick pattern/one skein inspiration you need to finish up your holiday gifts! Keep reading for the free crochet pattern.

Loving this Stitch? Crochet a Matching Cowl and Hat!

The Cookies and Cream patterns just scream “cream filled cookies” don’t they!? The moss stitch in this pattern creates a subtle but beautiful and modern texture, and it is a very forgiving stitch when it comes to working with darker yarns (this lamp also helped A LOT!). If you selected some darker colorways of Lion Brand Scarfie yarn for this event, the Cookies and Cream Mittens would be a good one to use it with! And then if you fall in love as I suspect you will ;) you can go right on to making the Cowl from my 2017 collection and the Cookies and Cream Hat that I posted as a Seven Days of Scarfie teaser pattern this summer.

Row 4-28: Repeat Rows 2 (on even rows) and 3 (on odd rows) until you have gone around the entire base of the mitten.

After completing Row 28: Working through the BLO of Row 24 and your starting chain, sl st across to seam the cuff together. sl st into the last st of Round 31. Tie off yarn and weave in ends. Continue on to complete the thumb.

Attaching the Thumb:

Round 1: Attach yarn into the thumb hole with a sl st. ch 1, and SC evenly around the thumb hole until you have 12 sts total. Some stitches may be worked into "non traditional" spaces such as stitch posts to achieve this number. Attach to the first st of the round with a sl st (12)

Round 2-8: ch 1, SC in each st around. Attach to the first st of the round with a sl st (12).

Round 9: ch 1, SC2Tog around.

Cut and tie yarn leaving a long tail. Using a yarn needle, weave through every other stitch around the top. Pull to cinch the thumb shut and tie off. Weave in all ends.
